Building from source

Note there are two branches kept for this project, main is held at current release, while dev is moving on. To roll-up, kindly follow instruction from https://github.com/Basssiiie/OpenRCT2-Simple-Typescript-Template - with small spice: before npm run build:dev run node rebuildPngToBase64.js, as base64 version of images used on buttons is then rolled up in plugin.

Visual Studio Code users can clone this repository in editor and use Terminal -> Run task... menu options (including downloading openrct2.d.ts into lib directory and running rebuildPngToBase64.js)
